Kansas Is Beautiful!

I love my state. I adore my home! Kansas is amazing. Today, the weather was beautiful. Its about 60 degrees outside right now. How wonderful is that? It is the perfect temperature and I love it! Kansas has some pretty special days. California is the same all year round (for the most part) but Kansas has seasons, high and low temperatures and after it being pretty cool the past few days, this weather is worth celebrating. I couldn't ask for a more beautiful day!
